On Sunday afternoon, the Cincinnati Bengals dominated the Buffalo Bills thanks to another prolific performance from Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, who outdueled Bills quarterback Josh Allen for most of the game as he led his team to the AFC Championship game for the second-straight season.
It was a dominant game from Joe Burrow. And after the game, Bengals star receiver Ja’Marr Chase had plenty of high praise for his quarterback, according to NFL reporter Kimberley A. Martin of ESPN, claiming he “gets overlooked” and is “disrespected” while comparing him to Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.
Jamarr Chase to me: “(Burrow) is a true quarterback. Look, Josh Allen’s a great QB too, but Joe can do it all. Josh Allen’s game revolves around just being a dual-threat, running QB. That's not bad. But Joe’s more of a Peyton Manning, Tom Brady-type of QB.” #RuleTheJungle

Burrow finished the game 23-for-36 through the air for 242 yards and two touchdowns along with 31 yards on the ground. Allen, meanwhile, went 25-for-42 for 265 yards and an interception with 26 yards and a touchdown on the ground.
It’s safe to say that Burrow earned his respect and praise for his performance on Sunday afternoon.
